Low plasma selenium concentrations in critically ill children: the interaction effect between inflammation and selenium deficiency [PDF]
Introduction: Low plasma selenium concentrations are frequent in critically ill patients. However, whether this is due to systemic inflammation, a deficient nutritional state or both is still not clear.

ALDH2 Mediated Ferroptosis Regulation in Ischemia–Reperfusion Injury
ABSTRACT Ischemia–reperfusion injury (IRI) is a common complication in diverse clinical settings, including myocardial infarction, stroke, organ transplantation and major surgery. Its pathological core lies in the metabolic disruption caused by blood flow cessation, followed by oxidative stress, inflammatory cascades and cell death upon reperfusion ...

Thioredoxin reductase as a target enzyme for electrophilic anticancer drugs [PDF]
Induced production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is a common attribute of most cancer cells. One strategy for cancer cells to maneuver the increased and potentially toxic levels of ROS is to induce the expression of cellular antioxidants and ...
